<div dir="ltr" >HI All,
<div> </div>
<div>I have a tantalisingly interesting question about licensing...</div>
<div> </div>
<div>When installing a couple of AFM gateway nodes into a cluster for data migration, where the AFM filesets will only ever be local-updates, those nodes should just require a client license, right? No GPFS data will leave through those nodes, so I can't see any valid argument for them being server licensed.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Anyone want to disagree?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Cheers,</div>
<div>Luke.</div></div></blockquote></div></div>
